Exhibition Celebrating Louis Le Prince

The Northern Film School in conjunction with Leeds International Film Festival is delighted to exhibit the work and life of Louis Le Prince.

Curated by Irfan Shah, a world expert on the life and work of Le Prince, the exhibition will be held in the Local and Family History section of Leeds Central Library and will contain images and artifacts connected to the Le Prince story and in particular, to his years in Leeds.

Following the Inaugural Louis Le Prince lecture, the exhibition will be formally opened by Laurie Snyder, a descendent of Le Prince, on Thursday 2 November at 13:00. The exhibition will then run until 16 November.

Join us at this breakfast lecture, sponsored by Yorkshire Bank, where Will will explore the global economy, as well as trends closer to home, including the UK economy ahead of the country’s departure from the EU.
